Knowledgeable and Helpful!

Rachel Meadows responded to my questions quickly and concisely. She made recommendations and gave great legal advice. She gave me a list of first and necessary steps for me to take in order of importance. She spoke in a manner that was easy for me to understand and her instructions gave me peace of m...ind that I was in good hands. Thank you!

Understands more than just the law

Chris has helped me maneuver through a maze of accusations and false narratives from a former employer and the employer’s bank who have attempted to paint me unfairly and unjustly with innuendo and false facts. His guidance and help have allowed me to retain my reputation without resulting to costly ...and time consuming litigation by helping me focus on what was important and achievable. Chris understands and communicates not only reality of the legal issues, but the economic considerations as well. With Chris’s help my family has been given the opportunity to resume or lives.

MOST EFFICIENT AND TRUSTWORTHY ATTORNEY

We hired Chris Patterson and the Wiseman Bray Law Firm to represent us in litigation concerning a family trust. Chris is very ethical, of excellent character, dependable, diligent in his knowledge of the law, and very hard working. I was impressed by his honesty and well thought out advice. This c...ase required timely, strong legal responses which he did not waver from. Chris and his colleagues kept us completely informed, even by calling immediately after a court hearing. Whenever I had questions, the responses were always in a timely manner. During his meetings with us, Chris explained in detail what was taking place, what the laws says and what could or should happen. Since this case involved the dynamics of family, Chris was able to help us put aside some painful hurts to guide us in making some tough decisions. He was compassionate, understanding, and down to earth as he helped us make the best honest decision for our situation. He was very easy to talk to. There was a wealth of wisdom from past litigations that he shared with us that also helped confirm to us we were making the right decision. Chris brought this case to a close helping to minimize our financial loses. The best part and our main goal was to save our parents estate, which he did. Also, it would make my parents very happy to know that the property they worked and sacrificed for many years is still in the family. A family member was able to purchase the farm. I highly recommend Chris Patterson and I am very grateful for how well Chris served us. I feel like we made a friend as well.
